Geological Summary |
MIOCENE AGE PLATEAU BASALT IS LOCALLY ERODED TO EXPOSE A MIXED ASSEMBLAGE OF ANDESITE TUFFS, CARBONATED GREENSTONE, PERIDOTITE? AND GABBRO, WHICH ARE INTRUDED BY SEVERAL NORTHEAST STRIKING FELDSPAR PORPHYRY DYKES. LOW-GRADE GOLD-PYRITE MINERALIZATION IS ASSOCIATED WITH QUARTZ VEINING AND STOCKWORK IN OR ADJACENT TO THE FELDSPAR PORPHYRY DYKES. RESULTS OF OLD WORKINGS HAVE FAILED TO SUBSTANTIATE PREVIOUSLY REPORTED HIGH GOLD ASSAYS.
